These config files often contain many repeated strings which result in different string references in memory. By using a pool, we can detect when the strings are equal and reuse an existing reference as strings are immutable.
The FromLines will now use a pool to de-duplicate strings for a single call. By allowing a pool to be provided as a parameter, we can reuse even more strings. The MapCache defines such a pool so that strings are reused across all maps in the cache for even more savings.
* Rename LeftColor and RightColor to MinColor and MaxColor
These are mapped from LowRadarColor and HighRadarColor in
the original inis, and appear to be used to set the bounding
values for selecting a random colour, NOT for left/right
pixels (which caused noticeably wrong banding).
* Adjust brightness based on terrain height.
MinHeightColorBrightness and MaxHeightColorBrightness
were chosen by trial/error to match the original
map preview rendering.
Inits that are logically singletons (e.g. actor
location or owner) should implement this interface
to avoid runtime inconsistencies.
Duplicate instances are rejected at init-time,
allowing simpler queries when they are used.
A shared ValueActorInit<T> is introduced to reduce duplication
in the most common init cases, and an ActorInitActorReference
allow actors to be referenced by map.yaml name.
If a mod uses rectangular maps and no height levels,
checking if the CPos is within Bounds
should be enough and cheaper than the whole ToMPos
conversion and checks.
Allows preplaced actors to be rendered on map preview when saving the
map.
Also removes requirements for ResourceLayer in OpenRA.Game and moves it
to OpenRA.Mods.Common.
